Abstract

The spondyloepiphseal dysplasia are chondrodystrohpies with selective and combine invovlement of vertebrae andlong bone epiphyses and metaphses. It is rare familial disease and transmitted autosomal dominant except X-linkedrecessive in SED tarda form. The SED is classified by roentgenographic and clinical evaluation.
